I don’t know how,where, or when it happened. It just did. A blind dislike for all things United I have had since I can remember has metamorphosed into some reluctant but genuine respect. It is a very recent phenomenon, mirrored perhaps in the thawing in relations between the two managers. I angered a few in […]

It’s A Reffing Conundrum

Apologies for the late post. I have just been watching Thomas Vermaelen complete a very satisfactory ninety minutes for the reserves in a 0-0 draw at Old Trafford.

I cannot begin to tell you what this particular North London derby means to me. There was a bit of a tradition while I was knee-high to a grasshopper. I would be at the game with ‘holicdad, and we would come back and discuss it with Dad of ‘holicdad at his place just off New […]

They say it isn’t over until the fat lady sings. You can’t move tonight for plump lasses gargling with Listerine and clearing their throats. It’s that close. They’re ready.
